I got this because I needed something to take a huge label off the front of a scrapbook I bought at the store, and as careful as I was, it ended up looking like a wreck. I used this on it and got it completely off, sticker, and adhesive, and it looks clean and brand new. I waited a few seconds to let the label soak up the stuff so I could scrape it off more easily. It definitely suited my purpose and will probably help me out in the future.
